Blinken hearing: Democrats rush to defend Biden's deadly Afghanistan withdrawal
Fox News
Democrats on Monday emphatically defended President Biden’s hasty military withdrawal from Afghanistan during a hearing of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, in which Secretary of State Antony Blinken was grilled over the administration’s handling of the exit.
"Disentangling ourselves from the war in Afghanistan was never going to be easy," Meeks said. "And for my friends who presume a clean solution for the withdrawal existed, I would welcome hearing what exactly a smooth withdrawal from a messy, chaotic, 20-year war looks like. In fact, I’ve yet to hear the clean withdrawal option, because I don’t believe one exists." "They are masking their displeasure with criticism but fail to offer feasible alternatives," he said. "Once again, we are seeing domestic politics injected into foreign policy."More Related News
